Decorating Easter Eggs

Last year, at 10 months old, Blanden was really only able to admire the finished product...

But this year, at 22 months old, Blanden was able to decorate Easter eggs (almost) all by himself! He loved putting the little tabs in each glass of vinegar and watching them dissolve and change color. And then, with only a little help moving the glasses around, he was able to dunk the eggs and put them back in the tray on his own. (Of course, some of them received multiple dunks because that was the fun part. You can see that the eggs get darker as the pictures go on.)

As for the stickers that came with the decorating kit, Blanden preferred to put those on himself rather than on the eggs. But now we are all set with 18 eggs for his first Easter scavenger hunt next weekend (minus any that he eats between now and then).
